NPC POV
Being the hero of the story is great and all, but what about everyone else? When the dust settles, what happens to the civilians and bystanders, the side characters and OCs? The world does not stop turning when a hero goes on a quest. What do the common people see in them?
A collection of my favorite stories detailing the lives of the mundane- all the people who don’t get stories of their own, and scenes of things that could have happened.

The Other Side Of The Coin by saya4haji for Rhino (RhinoMouse)

Summary
Alternate scenes from 'The Old Gods Called, They'd Like Their Kingdom Back" by Rhino(RhinoMouse) which tells the events from varying points of view. My best attempt at Rhino's style and fitting into their canon but because I write as the story is ongoing there will likely be anachronisms. Alas, I can but try. Essentially, a more serious attempt at apocrypha and omakes than the Smith touched series.
The aim is for an omake for every ten chapters that Rhino publishes.

Summary
Rumor has it that not only did the fearsome Lord Lannister become a sword swallower, but he’s now swallowing the Stranger’s sword!? Of all the gods, why does The Seven have to prove itself real through the physical presence of the god of death in the mortal realm? All the lords wish it was the Maid instead.
The entire continent is in a tizzy.Cersei isn't pleased about getting a stepfather so soon after Mother's death, but she supposes that he can stay after teaching Jaime how to read and giving her all the pretty lace.
As for Tywin, he cares naught for the opinions of the sheep; he's too busy trying to glean out more information about his new husband from said husband - like what the Stranger's bride is supposed to do and the reasons why the Stranger would deign to come down to meet mankind. Surely it can't be just for acquiring a (male) bride?***
A story where Sung Jinwoo is a S rank hunter who's still busy clearing gates on Earth and taking care of his sister but has also (accidentally and unknowingly) gotten himself engaged to a certain blonde lord on another planet.
Series

A Demolition Boy & his Cryptid BF by kewltie

Summary
Bakugou of the Demolition Squad is famous for running one of the most popular Youtube channels on the web that regularly blow shit up and jumped off a perfectly good building for shit and giggles. He's also famous for his Cryptid BF™, never appearing on camera except for a few bodyshots and all information on him is kept locked up tighter than Fort Knox, therefore drawing all sort of attention and curiosity toward his mysterious boyfriend.
Deku from Deku Explains is a hopeless chatterbox who is known for uploading 20-30 minutes video that talked about his favorite shows and comics and have one of the most devoted following on Youtube. He also can't seem to shut up about his boyfriend Kacchan, who regularly make his presence on the channel as a disembodied voice.
They should theoretically have nothing in common except a shared platform to host their content and an army of fans with an endless curiosity and devotion to their Youtubers. Vidcon is where we lay our scene and the internet is about to get a rude wake up call.

Some things, like war and family, stick with you in your blood.

Summary
"I didn’t understand I wanted to live until Hatake Sakumo saved my life."
Having been (absurdly) reincarnated into a previously fictional setting, Yamada Hanako felt satisfied staying in the background-- this story was written before she arrived, and it would continue without her just the same. Unfortunately, she made a single, critical error: a bit part is still a part.
This... fucking sucks.
